Thanks for the tip. It's a solid book.
However I'm yet looking for comments on the books that are on my short
list (se first post in this thread) :)

I'm not (and I'll never be) an architect but I've recently fall in
love with architecture. So I would to build some solid foundations for
this discipline throught authoritative and well written books on
theory and history of architecture. That's all!

Hmm, Christopher Alexander books...get a copy of Architectural Graphic
standards and kind a thumb through (you can get a less than current
edition for less)...purchase lots of Dover architectural and building
books....take a couple courses in History of Architecture....
